Top 5 Appointment Scheduling Apps Worth your Attention

Top 5 Appointment Scheduling Apps:

The top 5 scheduling apps that have caught everyone’s attention are:

• Calendly:
  
  Calendly follows a rather simplistic approach to scheduling. You can tell Calendly when you are available and it allows you to share your availability via a link or by embedding it on your website.
  
  It also provides similar privileges to your client and also adjusts the time zone accordingly irrespective of where your client is in the world.
  
  
  

• Assistant.to:
  
  Assistant.to is one of the best apps that can sync perfectly well with your Gmail using a Gmail plugin. The plugin is only available for Gmail, but the best part of using it is that the app is completely free. And not only the Freemium version but the full app.
  
  When you install the app, the plugin can be observed in every one of your emails. The plugin would offer you various days and times to choose from to schedule a meeting with the recipient. The same process is carried out for the recipient. As the recipient narrows down on a time and date, it automatically gets scheduled in both your and the recipient’s calendar.
  
  If the listed times don’t work then the user can opt to “see more times” or set their own time manually. It’s ideal if you want to use it for one-on-one appointment scheduling and also works well with multiple users.

• X.AI:
  
  As the name suggests, this is the most intriguing concept that has been introduced that offers you an Artificial Intelligence Scheduler. The coders at X.AI have done a pretty fabulous job with its scheduler, which removes the distractions associated with appointment scheduling.
  
  The best part of using X.AI that it syncs seamlessly with your email, Slack, website, and of course with your calendar.
  
  Let’s understand in brief how it works.
  
  Step 1: Imagine you’re John, writing an email to your colleague named ‘Anita’. Here, the first step you’ve to take is ‘CC’ 'amy@x.ai'. ‘Amy’ is the name of the artificial intelligence bot that would assist you in planning your appointments.
  
  Step 2: Suppose your message along with your mail goes something like:
  
  “Amy, please schedule a 30-minute video call with Anita sometime next week, title it ‘Product Presentation: Call 4’. I’ll call her.”
  You must note that adding a title is completely your choice.
  
  Here Anita is your colleague who is unaware of the fact that ‘Amy’ is not your assistant but an AI bot. But reading the message she would think you have one.
  
  Step 3: The AI ‘Amy’ would send a message like:
  
  “Hey Anita, happy to find a time for you and John
  
  Would Thursday, October 16th at 2:00 PM EDT work?
  
  John is also available for a 30-minute call:
  
  Friday, October 17th from 12:00 PM to 12:30 PM
  
  What’s the best number for John to call?
  
  - John
  
  

Step 4: In this final step, your colleague would reply something like:

“Hi, Amy,
Thursday at 2 works for me!
My number is 444-999-5656

- Anita

Step 5: Now, Amy the AI agent creates an appointment for both of you in your        

respective calendars.

So, X.AI is the most advanced and intriguing form of appointment scheduler available in the market. X.ai’s AI bot has taken 3 years of persistent brainstorming and development and 30 million USD in seed funding to make it the way it is now. It has acquired a whopping 98% of accuracy with its response time reduced to minutes, from an hour a few years ago.
